Is the Standard A2 rifle available with a 20" chrome lined barrel?

The web site only lists a chrome-moly barrel or stainless.

Thanks.

A 20" Chrome-lined chambered in 5.56 NATO would be great!

So do you mean no such item exists?

As I understand it, RRA does not regularly offer a 20" chrome-lined 5.56 NATO chambered barrel. Someone please correct me if I am wrong. I am hopeful however, that RRA will remedy this in the future.

From a conversation I've had with a guy "in the know", there reportedly isn't enough demand to warrant the purchase of the required number of barrels that they would need to keep on-hand.

In other words, no chrome-lined 20".

May I suggest you look into an 20" upper with the medium or government contour barrel from CMMG? You'll be able to save a few $$$ by purchasing the lower from them separately...

(A3 shown - A2 is $50 more)

CMMG was my next choice.

I already have two of their lowers, and have had good experiences with their customer service.

Just trying to add some variety to my collection.

We're going to be listing 20" chrome-lined heavy barrels in the next catalog.
Not a huge demand, but since we're doing them onthe select fire models, we'll have the option onthe cvilian-side semi-autos as well.

The next catalog is 2007 - correct?

We do two catalogs per year...early in the year for the SHOT Show and mid-year for Camp Perry and beyond. The barrels themselves should be in hand before the next catalog.
